Milwaukee Brewers (Gallardo) at Boston Bruins (Lester)
This game has one of the highest run lines today and with the way Carlos Gomez is swinging the bat, I don’t know if I can sit him. It’s probably a boom-or-bust play because Jon Lester could dice him up with that cutter on the hands. I would also look for Rickie Weeks at second base today against the lefty. It should go without saying that I will not be starting Gallardo in Fenway Park.
Carlos Gomez (OF) – $6157
Rickie Weeks (2B) – $4654
I’ll avoid Lester because the Brewers are potent enough to light up anyone (ask Clay Buchholz). But there are a lot of options on the Red Sox that are pretty cheap and certainly worthwhile today (as always, check lineups before locking any of these in).
Mike Napoli (1B) – $6220
Xander Bogaerts (SS) – $5028
Daniel Nava (OF) – $4804
